With its substantial luggage allowance and completely stress-free connecting flights, British Airways is happy to uphold its longstanding record of supporting students from India.

“Our codeshare agreement with American Airlines offers our young customers the additional advantage of choosing from an extensive network that covers more than 200 destinations in the world,” the airline executive added.

If a country’s embassy rejects a student’s request for a visa when the student is traveling from India, the airline has set up a system where they will be entitled to a complete refund without any additional fees.

Students departing from British Airways’ London Heathrow Terminal 5 for flights to the US, Canada, and other countries outside of the UK receive proper connectivity. Customers of British Airways and its sibling airline, Iberia, are the only ones who may use the facility.
